You should totally do a quick comparison video of all the new snapdragon laptops and give us your recommendations!

I returned my Galaxy Edge 4 for the new surface, the keyboard on the Galaxy was crap and I couldn’t stand the bezel at the bottom. I love the new surface, highly recommend it

Hello Andrew,

This is a case of the placebo effect. The construction of the laptop has not changed; it is still the Galaxy Book 4 Pro 14-inch with a Snapdragon processor. The display, hinge wobble, fan, and speakers remain the same. They released the Intel version just two months ago, so they haven't had time to build a new laptop specifically for the Snapdragon.

Nothing beats the display on this, yes it got issues but I got this at $1050 with free galaxy buds 2 pro after workplace discount and cashback. At this price, it easily beats surface laptop

Tremendous, I can only say WOW. I owned the 2011 version of this and I after the LG Gram 16, this is my second option. Really good one. Thanks Andrew.

You have been putting great efforts into X Elite coverage for us. Thank you a lot💙
I don't understand the big battery runtime differece in video playback between 12 hours of Edge and 20 hours of Surface. The OLED display alone does not explain this. The advertised runtime is almost the same. What would happen if the display run at 60 Hz instead of 120 Hz?

Thankyou for this review....it has been advertised to me for a couple of days and I am looking to upgrade my 8 yr HP laptop 😂🤦‍♀️ Samsung laptops has always called my attention for its amazing display and touchscreens

They could've allowed Qualcomm to sell these chips to Huawei and watch them create magic with them. Just look at the Huawei MateBook X Pro 2024 with the Core Ultra 9.

If only it had a haptic trackpad, it would have been the perfect copilot +PC. Lighter than the surface 7 and with a better screen and imo better keyboard.

[whitest_kyle]

I'm considering this over the Lenovo because the Lenovo comes with the base processor, but the storage and chin are not great lol

[Raikiry]

I just gotta wait for an eventual release of a Lenovo Yoga 9, 2 in 1, with this processor. That would be a dream.

[raguel]

This device is really good; its surprisingly light, significant battery life for its compact size, its performance is quite good and the screen is arguably the best on the market.

[vikasthakurus]

Samsung has already started to discount - so it's now $999 (perhaps for a limited time). At that price, it seems to be a pretty good value proposition. 14", Snapdragon Elite 80, 16GB RAM, 512GB storage

[LinUx-dcmj]

what can you tell us about conecting with 3 external monitors?

[Burbanana]

hey Andrew, I appreciate your videos, but I think you should really include a performance test on battery with the Balanced power profile (what most of the average consumers use). I think this will show more of the real world usage, and how much these manufacturers limit their chips on the standard power profile when not plugged in.

I know that the Surface Laptop does this very well, and the Samsung cuts off a lot of performance on balanced. Im missing this info in most reviewer videos which is a shame. No average consumer uses the high performance profile, and power users only really use it when plugged in at a desk. These laptops are mostly for daily use anyway, and the PR is made for long battery life during daily general use. On the high performance mode you are losing out on the longer battery life as well.

Surface laptops are the galaxy books we have been waiting for all along

[ItsMeProday]

Mic sound during camera recording is not so good. Also, soldered storage memory has to be in cons section.

[sylv]

hello Andrew from France.
I was impatiently awaiting your test because I was hesitating between this edge and the Book 4 pro 360. ultimately the 360 seems the best of the Book 4 if we exclude the very expensive ultra

[rafaelperez]

Strictly my opinion but I wouldn't recommend Samsung if you're looking to maximize your hard earned money on a new laptop. Samsung is notorious for being expensive and giving you little for your money, the Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge being no exception. You're better off in investing on a Lenovo before considering Samsung. Excellent First Look Review Andrew!! 👍😁

[snkcorp.]

the speakers on the edge are not akg tuned. Also not AKG branded on botton like the Book 4 Pro. You lose also one fan speed mode on the edge. Pro has 4 fan modes.
